contain parallel sequences of signs and spoken language.
Available continuous sign corpora are extremely limited, containing 4-6 orders of magnitude fewer sentence pairs than similar corpora for spoken language machine translation [@arivazhagan2019massively].
Moreover, while automatic speech recognition (ASR) datasets contain up to 50,000 hours of recordings [@pratap2020mls], the most extensive continuous sign language corpus contains only 1,150 hours, and only 50 of them are publicly available [@dataset:hanke-etal-2020-extending].
These datasets are usually synthesized [@dataset:databases2007volumes;@dataset:Crasborn2008TheCN;@dataset:ko2019neural;@dataset:hanke-etal-2020-extending] or recorded in studio conditions [@dataset:forster2014extensions;@cihan2018neural], which does not account for noise in real-life conditions. Moreover, some contain signed interpretations of spoken language rather than naturally-produced signs, which may not accurately represent native signing since translation is now a part of the discourse event.
